I like to lift heavy things, make colorful food, write, and talk about pop culture.

Vindicated

It only took 12 years, but I am finally vindicated. I guess the trick was actually moving to LA. Brangelina is OVER. Too bad we probably won’t get Brannier back.

Okay, so, I sound like a terrible person because you know, children are involved, but my poor 14 year old heart was broken all those years ago. Team Jen always!

Moving on…Monday wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t easy either. People keep reminding me that it’s not going to take several days to adjust to this new way of living and I totally understand that. It just hurts, mainly being away from my family. Emotional ups and downs are normal, but I’m trying to be strong and patient!

I started my morning with a bite of comfort- waffles, strawberries, and a banana.

After some writing and working, it was time to check out my new neighborhood in the best way possible, a run!

I cruised for the usual 3.1, but was very happy (and sweaty) when I finished. The sun wasn’t blaring and humidity wasn’t bad, but it was still hot! A quick peanut butter and jelly sandwich worked as my post-workout meal.

We still don’t have Internet, so I headed out to the local library – my sister must be proud – to apply for jobs and get some more work done. By the time I got home, I was hungry! I threw a bunch of stuff together for dinner and it was delicious.

After some more writing and reading, it was time to call it an early night. All of these emotional and physical changes make for an exhausted girl! I might have used that line already, but it couldn’t be truer!
